Equipment that I hope to buy
In my previous post, I covered the equipment that I currently use. The following is a list of what I am still planning to get.
Canon TS-E 17 - This is simply too tempting, especially for my real estate work. I am currently saving for this lens, which is good as it is not out yet. I hope to have it by the end of the year, even though it is quite pricy.
Canon 600mm F4 IS - I will most likely start saving for this lens after I buy my TS-E 17. I will use the TS-E 17 for real estate shoots that will help pay for this monster. I’m still debating between this and a microscope, but the around town opportunities to use this are just too tempting.
Canon 135mm 2L - I am a bit conflicted about this lens and am unsure it will truly be on my list. The issue is that I already heavily use my 70-200 4L IS for pictures of my kids and I’m not sure I will have room in the bag for this lens.
Microscope - The problem is I don’t want any microscope - but a DIC microscope, which will set me back more than the 600L.
Really Right Stuff pano kit - I love doing panoramas and the only thing keeping me from getting it right now is the price and the two lenses in front of it. :) I almost bought it a few months ago but chose to buy a monopod instead - which I do not regret.
Singh-ray vari-ND - I haven’t done much landscape work lately, but I hope that will change. When it does I hope to have one of these to do some long shutter shots.

- Congrats to Canon on the TS-E 17! Recently it has been a bit of a bummer being a Canon user. Granted, the 5D Mark II is a great camera and competes very well with the D700, but every other camera in their SLR line seems to take a back seat these days. Therefore it was nice to...
